garden salad

We had home grown salad yesterday.

The cold frame I planted last fall yielded cress, spinach and chard. The kitchen had sprouts, mostly alfalfa, but also radish and broccoli.

The combination was healthy (organic) and simple.

I combined some good olive oil, some lemon juice and some seasoning to make a simple, made on the spot dressing.

On top of it all I added one touch of luxury: a spoonful of Feta cheese.

It was good.

And as a reminder: there is nothing going on in the world today that is going to reduce the cost of food. Whether we call it reality or belt tightening the little people have few choices.
